    Default "jerry can carrier"

    Home built job. This will fit into any 2" reciever hitch and carry (2) 5 gal. cans. Hinged on one side so you can open a rear hatch or tailgate. Its not perfect but worked well for me. Gas cans not included. $175 OBO

    I'll have to take a side picture for you. As far as anti rattle goes, what worked for me was using a shim of thin metal and instead of a regular hitch pin I used a grade 8 bolt. There really wasn't any rattle. When fully loaded I also added a strap from the top to my roof bar just to help.

    I should add, this is most likely to heavy to ship unless you want to pay for it.

    That's a very cool idea.
